A Sharing from Karin:
Taste and Know
You feed me a piece of Truth, but I can't stomach it.
As a single bite, I don’t get it!
Embittered, I avoid You
Whilst searching my heart and history.
Moon waxing, relationship strained, I relent:
“A whole portion, please.”
And this time I Listen,
Chew on it, let it digest.
She comes into her Fullness, brilliant in the Heavens!
And suddenly, I see mySelf reflected in your words.
Schemata rearranged, outdated ideas
updated,
A new slice of
Truth illuminated.
How do I come to Know mySelf?
It is through relationship--
To You, Her, Him,
To All in Heaven and Earth.
When I Inquire and Listen,
Taste and Swallow,
Body and Soul metabolize together,
ONE history recognizes ALL histories.
Under her diminishing light, I sit in grateful wonder.
You offer another morsel.
Self Reflection: Am I willing to taste...and know?
